The stay-away was total at the Kinross gold mine where last month’s disaster occurred. Black miners stayed inside their barrack-like hostels. Reporters were barred from tile mine. In central Johannesburg, a protest meeting was held by the Black National Union of Mineworkers which called the strike action. A union, spokesman said miners had gathered not to mourn, but to commit themselves to liberation from apartheid and economic exploitation. White church leader, Bayers Nordea, told the crowd, "The accident at Kinross need never have occurred, and the one hundred and seventy-seven men need not have died."
